This year, Atlas will participate for the first time in the Colorado Springs Festival of Lights, and we need your support! We’re looking for a trailer for December 6 (and two days before). If anyone can lend us a trailer that we can decorate to use for our float, it would be a huge help! There will be more opportunities to volunteer on the day of the parade, but for now, we just need a trailer. Please email communications@atlasprep.org if you have one. Thank you!
From our bus drivers and monitors to our dedicated crossing guards, you ensure safety, care, and connection for every student, every ride, every crossing. Thank you for being the first hello and last goodbye in our students’ school day!
